What are the hematological effects of long-term Metformin use? Are there risks of anemia or other blood disorders and how should these be monitored during therapy?
Long-term use of Metformin can lead to vitamin B12 deficiency, which may cause anemia. Monitoring B12 levels annually is recommended to manage this risk.
